Hi, anyone else has problems building custom visuals when adding drilldown to capapilities ?
When i build, i get something like this > error JSON capabilities.json : instance additionalProperty "drilldown" exists in instance when not allowed
Any ideas ?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi,
I also met this situatation then I updated my powerbi-visual-tools to 1.2.0. checked the schema.capabilities.json file. yes it abstracts the drilldown capabilities.
So I enabled drilldown in capabilities.json like
"drilldown": {
Roles : [ "Category" ]
}
thats it . my custom visual enabled with drilldown 🙂
I hope this will help you.
Thank you,

Based on my research, you could check if schema.capabilities.json in .api folder of your project helps.
Hi, thanks for replaying.
Seemes that v1.10 api capaility schema does not allow drilldown usage in json.
Any idea how to activate drilldown ?
I too have the same problem can anyone help regarding this question.
